Loss of neurofibromin induces inflammatory macrophage phenotypic switch and retinal neovascularization via GLUT1 activation

Summary: Persons with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) exhibit enhanced glucose metabolism, which is replicated in Nf1-mutant mice. Inflammatory macrophages invest NF1-associated tumors, and targeting macrophages appears efficacious in NF1 models. Inflammatory macrophages rely on glycolysis to generat...
